If you have an extra phone you can use the second phone as your back up and install the google authenticator.
Download an apps named color note and install it on your phone and put your back up code and save it.

A lot of sites offer you alternative services like SMS or passphrases in case you loose your GA. Check if you can set one of those alternative options.

Yes but it seems this goes only for Google Services.

I can print backup codes to login at Google.
